Time for a Decision While one group of revolutionaries was fighting for Texas on the battlefield, another group was meeting to decide Texas’s fate. The defend- ers at the Alamo were under fire from Santa Anna, and Texas still had not officially declared independence from Mexico. When delegates to the first Consultation met in November 1835, they had a decision to make. Should they support Texas remaining a part of Mexico and continue to work on restoring the state’s rights granted in the Constitution of 1824? Or should they seek independence? They called a second meeting of the Consultation on March 1, 1836, hoping that events would help them make their decision.

Mary Jones: Last First Lady of the Republic of Texas
MARY JONES: LAST FIRST LADY OF THE REPUBLIC OF TEXAS Birney Mark Fish, B.A., M.Div. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS December 2011 APPROVED: Elizabeth Hayes Turner, Major Professor Richard B. McCaslin, Committee Member and Chair of the Department of History D. Harland Hagler, Committee Member Denis Paz, Committee Member Sandra L. Spencer, Committee Member and Director of the Women’s Studies Program James D. Meernik, Acting Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Fish, Birney Mark. Mary Jones: Last First Lady of the Republic of Texas. Doctor of Philosophy (History), December 2011, 275 pp., 3 tables, 2 illustrations, bibliography, 327 titles. This dissertation uses archival and interpretive methods to examine the life and contributions of Mary Smith McCrory Jones in Texas. Specifically, this project investigates the ways in which Mary Jones emerged into the public sphere, utilized myth and memory, and managed her life as a widow. Each of these larger areas is examined in relation to historiographicaly accepted patterns and in the larger context of women in Texas, the South, and the nation during this period. Mary Jones, 1819-1907, experienced many of the key early periods in Anglo Texas history. The research traces her family’s immigration to Austin’s Colony and their early years under Mexican sovereignty. The Texas Revolution resulted in her move to Houston and her first brief marriage. Following the death of her husband she met and married Anson Jones, a physician who served in public posts throughout the period of the Texas Republic. Over time Anson was politically and personally rejected to the point that he committed suicide.

EAST TEXAS HISTORICAL ASSOCIATION II THE WAR AND PEACE PARTIES OF PRE-REVOLUTIONARY TEXAS, 1832-1835 by lodella D. Kite Although many people are conversant with the Texas Revolution and events leading to it, relatively little research has been published until recently on the War and Peace parties of 1832-1835. These two factions within the Anglo-American population of Texas helped to sway public opinion both for and against armed conflict in the crucial days leading to the revolution. The War and Peace parties cannot be defined easily because they were not established political parties. They were labels faT persons of opposing political dispositions. Both factions surfaced during the disturbances of 1832. Members of the War Party either participated in the disturbances or condoned them. The Peace Party, probably repre senting more Texans throughout the period, loudly criticized the agita tion.

Independence Trail Region, Known As the “Cradle of Texas Liberty,” Comprises a 28-County Area Stretching More Than 200 Miles from San Antonio to Galveston
n the saga of Texas history, no era is more distinctive or accented by epic events than Texas’ struggle for independence and its years as a sovereign republic. During the early 1800s, Spain enacted policies to fend off the encroachment of European rivals into its New World territories west of Louisiana. I As a last-ditch defense of what’s now Texas, the Spanish Crown allowed immigrants from the U.S. to settle between the Trinity and Guadalupe rivers. The first settlers were the Old Three Hundred families who established Stephen F. Austin’s initial colony. Lured by land as cheap as four cents per acre, homesteaders came to Texas, first in a trickle, then a flood. In 1821, sovereignty shifted when Mexico won independence from Spain, but Anglo-American immigrants soon outnumbered Tejanos (Mexican-Texans). Gen. Antonio López de Santa Anna seized control of Mexico in 1833 and gripped the country with ironhanded rule. By 1835, the dictator tried to stop immigration to Texas, limit settlers’ weapons, impose high tariffs and abolish slavery — changes resisted by most Texans.

Runaway Scrape
THE RUNAWAY SCRAPE A Novel Billy Loran Moore Royal Fireworks Press Unionville, New York Prologue At the beginning of the nineteenth century, Texas was part of the Spanish colony that included Mexico. In 1821, Mexico won its independence from Spain, and its territory included Texas. The Mexicans welcomed settlers from the United States, and by 1830, there were four times as many Anglos as people of Mexican origin living in the territory. When Santa Anna, the Mexican president, suspended the Mexican constitution and began to restrict the rights of people living in Mexico, the Anglos resisted and moved to establish an independent Texas in 1835. In 1836, Santa Anna led the Mexican army into Texas to put down the rebellion. In early March, Santa Anna’s army killed the entire force of Texans who were defending the Alamo in San Antonio. Texas’s largest army, under the command of Colonel James Fannin, surrendered at Coleto Creek and in late March was executed en masse outside of Goliad. Smaller forces were wiped out at Refugio and San Patricio. Santa Anna had thousands of troops crossing Texas faced by nothing but a shadow of an army that Sam Houston was desperately trying to recruit and organize as a fighting force. Santa Anna vowed to destroy every person in Texas, and he sent his armies ravaging across the state to make good on that threat. Texans fled toward safety in the United States. Many of those fleeing were women and children whose husbands and fathers had died in earlier debacles in the war or who were off trying to help Sam Houston form an army.
